About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This figurative cigar ashtray originates from the former Austro-Hungarian Empire, dating to the early 1900s. The piece reflects the Biedermeier style, characterised by its functional yet elegant design, making it a distinctive historical artefact. Crafted from brass, the ashtray features a central figurative element designed to hold a cigar, set within a shallow, circular bowl on a raised pedestal base. The metal exhibits a natural, aged patina that speaks to its century-old provenance. The underside reveals original construction details, including a central nut and faint maker's marks indicative of its era and origin. The ashtray remains in good condition, preserving its structural integrity and original character. The brass shows a deep, unpolished patina consistent with age and historical use, adding to its authenticity as a collector's item. This piece serves as an intriguing decorative object for a study, library, or office. It complements classic, vintage, or eclectic interiors, offering a tangible connection to early 20th-century European history.
